Fountain Fishing Powerboats 38 LUXURY EDITION
The Ultimate Combination
Over the years Fountain Mercury fishboats have left the competition scratching their heads. This one may just make them throw in the towel. The 38 LX combines the best of all worlds, incorporating Reggie Fountain’s legendary offshore hull with a luxury package that rivals the fanciest Italian yachts—and the fishability that is winning tournaments all over the globe.
Triple Mercury Verado outboards teamed with Fountain’s super ventilated Positive Lift hull give you an insurmountable edge: With a top end of 63 mph and the ability to shoulder aside rough seas, the 38 LX can get you out to where the fish are faster and—get this—more comfortably and more safely than any other fishing boat on the water. Looking for fuel economy and range? This ones off the charts!
You’ll never eat anybody’s wake—again. Move into the boat that has the fishing (and cruising) world talking. Move up to Fountain!

Be advised that performance figures are merely an estimate of what you can expect based on our factory testing program. The above listed speeds are verified by radar with one test driver and less than ten (10) gallons of fuel. Boat speeds and range can vary depending on weight, fuel load, number of passengers, air temperature, altitude, humidity, barometric pressure, water conditions, wind, engine tuning, horsepower (HP) variance from engine to engine, propellers, and numerous other factors beyond our control.

The cabin of the 38 LX has brilliant cherry laminate cabinetry and trim and a full galley with cooktop, fridge, microwave, and stainless steel sink. Don’t forget the flat-screen TV and entertainment center. The plush settee makes up into a double berth.
Nothing beats a hot shower after a day on the ocean: the 38 LX’s enclosed head has a VacuFlush toilet, stainless steel sink with pressurized water system and shower.
Plus lots of usable stowage.
The 38 LX’s helm station is ergonomically designed with everything at your fingertips. It comes completely equipped with GPS, speedo, and an electrically controlled bolster/leaning post. Rocket launchers for rods are strategically positioned throughout the boat. The dash comes complete with a full array of Smartcraft gauges and independent shift and throttle controls. A single switch on the throttle trims all three engines. On the dash in the WOT position are independent drive and tab switches as well as one switch that controls both tabs and one that controls all three drives.
At the helm an electric bolster style leaning post is extremely comfortable in both the stand up or sit down position.
A cockpit that rivals bigger sportfishermen includes a Pro-Series 50-gal. Circulating livewell, and two huge, 150-quart fish boxes. A rear bench seat for three over the livewell makes life easier for the crew.
